When I play the Witcher 2 the game runs fine doesn't crash or freeze up etc but the CPU gets really noisy and when i check the temperature it can range from around to 86° - 106° so should i be worried ? B

Because i tend to come off the game when this happens , which doesn't take long.
 
While it may be true the temps are being displayed inaccurately, it probably is still getting pretty hot if it is getting that noisy. It only gets noisy because it needs to cool down the CPU with the fan, and the hotter it gets, the faster it spins the fan.

The Witcher 2 is a very demanding game, and is likely pushing your CPU/GPU to the limit.
